I’ve heard of others talking about Junkstock for years and finally this year I was able to experience it myself! I thought I’d share my experience and do a review in case any of you were wondering what this Junkstock thing is all about. My sisters told me I would love it, and they were absolutely right! Junkstock is in Waterloo, NE; right outside of Omaha. It’s a super easy drive, took us about 15 to 20 minutes to get there from the middle of Omaha. It’s nestled on Sycamore farms, a 135 acre old horse farm. Junkstock is a vintage market with over 180 vintage, antique and junk vendors. Lots of food vendors, live music, fire pits, a coffee and donut house and a gorgeous property make for a full day of fun.

It cost $10 to get in and is totally worth it. Once in, we were greeted with this cute setup below; perfect for a pic!

Pumpkins, mums, gourds, fresh flowers, corn, hay, basically all the fall things are all throughout the farm.

The huge white barn houses tons of vendors and would you look at that cute pumpkin house.

I mean, does it get any cooler than that?

SO creative and awesome.

They even have a couch in the pumpkin house.

Coffee House

After admiring the pumpkin house we made our way to this coffee and donut shop. They have some tables and chairs you can sit at and plenty of hay bales around to find a seat. Seriously, such a cute setup!

I would’ve liked to take this building home with me, donuts and all.

We got donuts and I got a pumpkin coffee. Pumpkin coffee was just ok but I like a pretty sweet coffee to be fair. Donuts were delish. I highly suggest the apple cider ones.

Shopping

There were a ton of vendors, I’m not even sure we saw every booth. Some are in the huge barn and then when you think that’s it, there are 2 more barns behind the white one with lots of vendors as well. There is a few more buildings with vendors and the rest are all outside.

Food

Junkstock Cafeteria is where they have all of their food vendors. So, my one complaint were the lines were pretty long most of the day. We went around 12:30 to eat but decided to wait til’ later, hoping the lines would’ve went down by then. A few hours later they were still very long.

We ended up seeing this food vendor, Carter & Rye, which my sister had heard of before. They make and sell sweet and savory hand pies.

Holy moly. Super good. Like, really, really, really good. I chose a ham and cheese pie and my sisters got the cheesy potato. Before we left we grabbed a brown sugar and cinnamon and pumpkin one and bought some homemade root beer from another vendor which was delicious. A perfect, fall snack.

Finds

I could’ve bought way more but was pretty selective with my purchases.

Some tips for you all if you plan on making a trip here in the future. My #1 tip is to GO! Seriously, such an awesome atmosphere with good food, music, shopping and all the fall goodness. You can totally make a whole day out of it if you want. A little tip I came by accidentally; I missed my first exit coming out of Omaha so ended up coming around the backside of the farm. We got in right away and the other side had a huge line past the exit. Bring some bottles of water, comfortable walking shoes, and a wagon if you plan on doing a lot of shopping. Get there earlier rather than later. As the day went on it got busier and busier, so if you can, start out your day early.
